A device for training and monitoring the respiratory system comprises a main body, which defines an inhalation chamber and an exhalation chamber communicating with the external environment by means of respective external seats and interconnected by a central chamber. A mouthpiece can be further placed in fluid communication alternatively with the inhalation chamber or with the exhalation chamber by means of respective one-way valves. A measurement sensor is coupled to the main body so as to measure a value representative of the breathing process, independently monitoring the contribution of inhalation and exhalation. Such a representative value is acquired by a control unit. Lastly, an adjustable load is interposed between the mouthpiece and the central chamber.
